This is what Ive gathered so far:

You will pay 500-750 to get an account
You will pay an anual fee to keep the account
If based outside the us, you will need to form an entity, which as I understand from setting up investment corps, can be done in a file cabinet in nevada for example. This would cost around 750 to have a lawyer set it up.
The big downfall is being double taxed on your income, but im sure there may be a way around this. So, all in all webmasters who wish to have high-risk processing need to pay around 2,000 dollars to continue.

Not that bad in my estimation.. but seems like a precursor to tougher times ahead.

Visa simply wants to ensure that people running a website are also capable of running a business. Makes sense.. kind of
